Fargo

description

"Fargo" is a television series created by Noah Hawley that premiered in 2014 on the FX network. The show is loosely based on the Coen Brothers' 1996 film of the same name, but instead of directly adapting the story, it presents a new tale set in the same universe. Each season tells a different story with different characters, but all take place in and around the titular city of Fargo, North Dakota.

The first season of "Fargo" follows Lester Nygaard, a meek insurance salesman whose life is turned upside down when he crosses paths with the dangerous hitman Lorne Malvo. The second season is a prequel set in 1979 and explores the rivalry between two crime families in Fargo and the surrounding areas. The third season takes place in 2010 and centers on the sibling rivalry between two brothers, one a parole officer and the other a successful businessman.

The show has received critical acclaim for its writing, acting, and direction, with particular praise for the performances of Billy Bob Thornton, Kirsten Dunst, Ewan McGregor, and Carrie Coon. It has also been noted for its dark humor and offbeat storytelling, as well as its use of regional accents and settings to create a unique atmosphere. "Fargo" has been nominated for numerous awards, including 53 Emmy nominations, and has won several, including three Emmys for Outstanding Limited Series.

Undoubtfully, cinematography has been my passion since a very young age. Even now, watching a new movie or series always prompts me to ask a lot of questions to the author. Thus, every little essay about a title is definitely not a spoiler, but rather an attempt to explore the idea.

The Chicago Code

2021
Crime & Thriller
"The Chicago Code" has nothing to do with deep-dish pizzas or the cruelly cursed Cubbies. "The Chicago Code" openly, unabashedly, plain and simple, is all about good versus evil. The good guys following "The Chicago Code" are very very good, and the bad guys breaking the code are very very bad. The windy city itself, definitely a critical element in the drama's development, lives somewhere in-between. Chicago may be "the second city," but it stands out as America's number one oxymoron. "Hog-butcher to the world," Chicago also brought us Hemingway and Frank Lloyd Wright. Home to Picasso's breathtaking artistic monument, Chicago also has been home to some monumental con artists: Rod Blagojevich comes immediately to mind. "Blaggo" is to Chicago scams as the Picasso is to the city's art and architecture. More to the point of "The Chicago Code," in just over thirty years, thirty-one second city aldermen have been convicted of violent crimes or corruption. In Chicago, graft greases the wheels and gets your streets ploughed. Although corruption may be common as camel-hair coats on the Magnificent Mile, Chicago cops still want to collar the bad guys. "The Chicago Code" attempts to dramatize how and why they do it, and it packs a pretty good punch for a network production. Critics and home-grown Chicago viewers strongly suspect "The Chicago Code" would achieve its completely gritty potential on cable, but it's hard to complain about Jennifer Beals, still fit and fabulous all these years after Flashdance, going balls-to-the-wall against the bad guys in Monday night primetime.
